I am here, in Koyasan, staying at Saizenin, rain pouring outside after having experienced the most beautiful day. All because of this video. I felt compelled to return to this video and say it. Thank you Allan.

This was my absolute favorite place when I visited Japan. It was a once in lifetime opportunity.

[@MonicaFlores-gr3wf]

My husband and I went to Japan for our honeymoon during sakura season. We stoped at Koyasan because of your video and I think it was the best 48 hours of the trip. Thank you!

[@nickandhelmi]

[@wilkowanders]

Thanks Allan for this video, we found this really helpful resource to watch before our trip to Koyasan. My favoruite part of Koyasan was the graveyard, so peaceful.

[@j-p112]

Wonderful guide and amazingly edited. Thank you very much, I'll consider it in my incoming trip!

Hi Allan, I’m in Koyasan because of your video! Many many thanks!!!!

[@kitloose7928]

Welk done, you really nailed it on visiting Koyasan- and this is coming from a tour guide of 20 years who's taken many guests here. Great (relevant) info and beautiful production, bravo!

[@mizunokatsushi3769]

Thank you for a very nice video guide. You understand the charm of Koyasan better than we do. It's impossible now because of the coronavirus. But please visit again someday.

[@nathyamamoto1985]

Went to Japan for the 1st time last year and included Koyasan bc of this video. Thank you so much, we loved it. Such a special place, a much needed break from the hustle and bustle from the big cities and waaaay cooler weather during heat waves last september.

[@sd01912]

I'm planning a trip to Koyasan now and your video has been so helpful! Thank you for making such an informative and useful video :)

[@shannimpym5708]

Planning a trip in Nov and really appreciated the detailed video, especially about the train stops and locations. Thank you!

[@emilioolivares]

Thanks Allan! Our family will travel to Japan in the next couple of days. I wanted to thank you because your videos were an inspiration for our itinerary. We'll be stopping at Koyasan for a night and staying at one of the local temples.

[@AllanSu]

Great to hear! Enjoy Koyasan it's such a special place

[@emilioolivares]

@@AllanSu, we did it, and it was all I imagined it to be. One of the most memorable parts of the trip for all of us. Thanks again!!

[@sunset9360]

Excellent coverage of Koyasan, very helpful. Thank you

[@terridennis6603]

This was an extremely helpful video! Thank you so much!

[@otleyltd6544]

Absolutely love the vids man, so serene. If your about Tokyo from end of April let me know, Im there for 3 weeks.

[@MardasMemories]

What a beautiful and equally useful video. Thank you for the clear transportation information especially. I wish all videos included such important information. Keep it up!!

[@searching000]

Thanks for your travel guide video. Very good. I enjoyed my stay at Koyasan very much for 3 days and 3 nights in December 2019. Got immersed in the 5am chanting at Tororo temple and visiting the cemetery during daytime and night tour. Museum and the different tempel complexes are a vist worth. Had a very inspirational time there. Highly recommended!

[@vietkhuong950]

Nice and emotional voice, I like it. Thank you for your sharing this video.

[@SantoshAM]

You are the first traveller i found when i was looking for Japan trip. All videos are like a mini documentary. Keep up the good work 👍👍

[@jaynewood1938]

I think this video is amazing I might visit there myself... thanks for sharing this opportunity with us

[@uttiyakoley3382]

Breathtaking scenaries and music...Loved it...

[@anyatitova7426]

Great video, very beautifully made and informative. Looking forward to visiting this peaceful place.

[@Travellization]

Beautiful place, thanks for showing it to us

[@nickandhelmi]

Al, this place feels like an anime settings haha 😂, its so damn beautiful and has that mysterious vibe,

[@kimm3473]

Beautiful video, Alan!

[@AllanSu]

Thank you Kim!

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

As usual utterly beautiful videos! I love them all and take notes.👏 we are off to Japan in 2021 if all goes according to plan. Thank you for all the Great tips

[@carollim322]

Superb vid Allan! So much details in your info, and you presented in ways which made it easier to capture the info - great and deliberate diction in your narration, good captions, and lovely soothing music. Beautiful captures as well, of the scenes. Thank you!

[@charlie996]

Quality video man. Keep it up!

[@Hoakaloa]

Thank you. Very helpful information, beautiful video. Mahalo nui loa.

[@EmmeandEffe]

Will be visiting in November, if all goes well with the visa! Definitely visiting Koyasan, magic place. Thank u so much for the precious info and wonderful video! 🙏

[@summerable]

Thanks for the great video! Even though the video is made 2 years ago, it's still very useful

[@Chisen_Daitoku]

mt.Koya is the real ancient Japan( I think Kyoto is a little bit for travel and sight seen... ) When you go to Mt. Koya, Ekoin(惠光院)is the really good Shukubo to stay, it has night tours of Okunoin(奥の院). I go there every year, really good.

[@mrinaliniperuvaludhi8326]

This is so so beautiful! I esp loved your appeal to visit the place at the end of the video, but the video itself is to inviting, I'm sure people would love to visit the place due to it alone. Breathtaking visuals Allan!

[@merfisto]

cant wait to visit this nov! thank you

[@ladayuen5323]

Very helpful. Thank you Allan

[@Chaoticwizard54]

Amazing production, what kind of camera are you using? You deserve more subs. Keep up the amazing work

[@REXAURDAAPEKING]

Had to come here during July to bring my uncle back and I do not handle humidity well at all think it’s bc I grew up in Arizona . Planning on spending at least a day in kyosan then heading north for more reasonable temperatures lol

[@T1MB3RW0LV35]

Very underrated

[@EvoCarl]

Great video. Looks amazing and in 2 years it will be my 50th birthday so treating myself to my dream holiday to Japan. A visit here definitely going on my Itinerary! I’m thinking of going in the same part of the season as the video as the autumn colours looks fantastic. Thanks for the video 🙏😁

[@melissaaarojas]

This was a great video !

[@salinakhan283]

amazing, very informative

[@drdisney]

Been to Mt Koya twice, simply beautiful ! What type of camera do you have, love the quality.

[@samystarfish5056]

Thanks very informative

[@nickandhelmi]

The kansai thru pass is decent in price for around 55 aud

[@StreetLifeApp]

Beautiful mate

[@AllanSu]

Street Life thank you!

[@notessurlavie]

Hi! Thanks for the all info about Japan you provided 🙏🏼 should we book for temple lodging before accommodation?

[@Komainu959]

This was such a great video! I went there in 2017 and unfortunately the rail line was down at the time causing a bus transfer and a large delay. Ended up getting there in the late afternoon vs mid morning. Was so tired ended up missing a bunch of things including Okunoin! But still glad we made the effort to get there and stay at a temple. One of these days I'll be back. Maybe not a temple stay this time due to expense, but if you're a first time visitor splurge a little.

[@RyanDobes]

Nice video, Allan! You create great guides.

[@AllanSu]

Thanks!

[@numinous2506]

I'm forever permanently changed even in the past. My own memory of myself is shattered and replaced with a moss covered blissful remembrance of all love of the self that is you.

[@saavnikrishnan3937]

Hi, planning to go to Japan in early September. Was wondering how the weather will be? I haven't been able to find an appropriate answer on Google. Thank you

[@arnoldroque4290]

Very nice video and very helpful. Is Koyasan disabled friendly? Don,t see a lot of folks using wheelchair in the video. Appreciate your response.

[@AllanSu]

I wouldn't necessarily say it is.

[@rajuljhaveri2698]

Is there lot of walking after the cable car

[@jaynewood1938]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍good work!

[@yunycedejesus335]

Hey Allan, What is your time of arrival and departure to koyasan? Do they have luggage storage because the check-in time is late and the checkout is too early. Thanks :)

[@AllanSu]

Yup, you can leave your luggage at Saizen-in before and after to do some exploring.

[@yunycedejesus335]

@@AllanSu Great, thank you so much :)

[@MaeFernandez-d4h]

How do you go to other attractions from one attraction?

[@PenguinWithAGuitar]

For the people that have stayed at the temples, will it be an issue that I have a tattoo on my upper arm? I know Japanese people in certain places have people with them.

[@Anonimo-xf9ob]

i have a jr pass but i dont know if it can take me to Gokurakubashi, also since i am a foreigner, do i have to apply for Nakai line train ticket before arriving to japan just like Jr pass??? or do i purchase in person at Osaka station? please help me i am going at the end of february and i am a little stupid and overwhelmed but i do want to see Koyasan :(

[@secrethistory01]

Same here

[@ryo5210]

Are the baths in the temple open share type?

[@AllanSu]

Yes. I believe most temple stays are like that

[@None15779]

Is the temple lodging a closed practice to non Buddhists?

[@AllanSu]

No. I believe anyone is welcome as long as you respect and follow the guidelines by the temple.
